Chapter 350 Everyone has their own agenda
"Ah?" When Mu Wushuang heard Ye Fei's question, he was stunned at first, and then immediately glanced at Murong Wannian.
That charming little look was obviously seeking her grandfather's opinion.
However, Murong Wannian first frowned slightly, and then he slowly said to Ye Fei: "Mr. Ye, to be honest, we don't know who this person is, and we are also mobilizing the entire Wu Kingdom to look for him."
Hearing Murong Wannian say this, Ye Fei's heart couldn't help but tremble suddenly.
Damn, you are using the whole country’s strength to find me?
What benefits did they give you?
So much so that you are willing to mobilize the entire country's strength?
What? If you find me and kill me, what if I can let your entire Murong family ascend to heaven together?
Although he was thinking this in his mind, Ye Fei did not show any extra reaction on the surface.
After going through so many things, he has made great progress in his character.
"The whole country is mobilizing forces to find this person. This person must be very valuable, right?" Ye Fei said tentatively again.
"Haha..." Murong Wannian suddenly laughed: "If Mr. Ye ever sees this person, I hope you can tell me in time. The Murong family of Wu Kingdom will definitely reward you handsomely. From now on, you will be a noble of Wu Kingdom. At least you will be granted the title of Marquis of 100,000 Households and the Nine Gifts!"
"A marquis of one hundred thousand households, and also with the nine gifts?" Ye Fei's eyes widened.
The so-called Nine Gifts are nine items bestowed by the emperor on meritorious officials and nobles.
Being awarded the Nine Gifts is the highest honor for a minister.
The nine items are chariots and horses, clothes, musical instruments, red doors, steps, tiger guards, axes, bows and arrows, and glutinous rice wine.
The Nine Gifts may seem ordinary, but they are symbols of status. Possessing these nine items, a minister can be said to have ceremonial privileges and truly be second only to the emperor.
However, at this moment, Ye Fei was not happy at all.
Damn, what kind of benefits did the enemies of Lingxu Ye family promise them? As long as they can provide them with clues about me, they can get such a reward.
If I could get such a reward if I turned myself in, I would turn myself in right now.
No matter what he thought, Ye Fei would not be so stupid as to voluntarily "turn himself in".
"Okay, if I see him, I will tell you." Ye Fei said.
"Thank you, Master Ye." At this time, Mu Wushuang took out a pair of yin-yang fish jade pendants, separated one piece, and handed it to Ye Fei: "This is a sound transmission jade talisman unique to my Wu country. If Master Ye meets the person in this painting, you can contact me directly at any time using the sound transmission jade talisman.
At the same time, this sound transmission jade talisman is also a symbol of the royal family of our Wu Kingdom. If you have time to go to Wu Kingdom in the future and encounter any trouble, you can bring this jade talisman to any city lord nearby. They will definitely treat you as a guest of honor and help you solve any difficulties that occur in the territory of Wu Kingdom. "
"That's great!" Ye Fei nodded and took the jade talisman that Mu Wushuang handed to him.
Even though he had secretly sworn in his heart that he would never go to the Witch Kingdom again, as going there would clearly mean committing suicide, but in this situation, not accepting the jade talisman would inevitably arouse the other party's suspicion.
At the same time, Murong Wannian cast an admiring look at Mu Wushuang and said to her through voice transmission: "Well, not bad, not bad, Shuang'er, you have been traveling around the three major star regions in recent years, it seems that you have made great progress."
Mu Wushuang immediately sent a voice message into the room and replied, "Thank you for the compliment, Grandpa. Shuang'er just wanted to give Master Ye some practical benefits first to show our sincerity so that he won't be too secretive when he demonstrates to us how to absorb the ancient sword intent."
"Okay, next time I see the person in the painting, I will notify Princess Wushuang as soon as possible. Then... let's go!" Ye Fei said.
Oh, notify you?
You are dreaming!
At this moment, Ye Fei had no idea that he was missing out on a huge fortune that had arrived ahead of time.
"Mr. Ye, please!" Mu Wushuang immediately stretched out her fair and slender hand towards an open space in front of Ye Fei and gently drew a circle in the air.
Swish!
However, a blue vortex of spiritual energy appeared out of thin air two or three meters in front of Ye Fei.
The spiritual energy vortex gradually expanded, and eventually, a spiritual energy gate was formed.
Looking through the spiritual door, it was dark over there. In the sky, colorful auroras kept flashing, and on the ground was the endless desert of the Demon Abyss.
Ye Fei looked back at the green and picturesque courtyard with some reluctance. He would have to wait until he left the Demon Abyss to see the green scenery again.
I do feel a little reluctant.
However, at this moment, he was so eager to leave this place.
Swish!
Ye Fei didn't think any more and immediately raised his leg and stepped into the vortex of spiritual energy.
A powerful gravitational force instantly sucked him in, and in the blink of an eye, he arrived in an endless desert.
As soon as Ye Fei appeared, he immediately turned around and looked around. When he saw the surroundings, he suddenly became panicked again.
It was because he didn't see the coffin-carrying team, and it was obvious that they didn't bring him near the main group.
Swish!Swish!
At this moment, two spiritual energy fluctuations came from the side.
Turning around, he saw Murong Wannian and Mu Wushuang also coming out of the secret realm.
Both grandfather and grandson looked at Ye Fei with anticipation, waiting for him to demonstrate how to absorb the ancient sword intent.
"Why are you here?" Ye Fei looked confused.
“Hehe…” Mu Wushuang smiled slightly: “Young Master Ye wants to show us how to absorb the ancient sword intent, so he naturally has to find a deserted place. Young Master Ye, please don’t misunderstand. Please rest assured, as long as you show us once how you absorb the ancient sword intent, we will immediately send you to meet up with your senior sisters and junior brothers.”
"Haha, is that so?" Ye Fei curled his lips.
Do you dare to say that you are not taking them hostage?
If I show you once, you'll let me go?
I don't believe you.
"Of course!" Mu Wushuang frowned, "Could it be that I, the princess of Wu Country, would lie to you?"
"If you bring my senior sister and my junior brother here, I will trust you!" Ye Fei said, "Otherwise, I will not show you how to absorb the ancient sword intent!"
"You..." Mu Wushuang was obviously a little angry: "How could you not trust me so much!"
"It's not that I don't trust you, it's that I only believe in human nature and my own judgment of a thing!" Ye Fei said.
Mu Wushuang frowned and looked at Murong Wannian hurriedly.
In fact, she deliberately brought Ye Fei to this uninhabited place because it was her grandfather's idea. Her grandfather did want to take Feng Qingyao and Ding Dashan as hostages.
"Grandpa, what should we do?" Mu Wushuang said to Murong Wannian through voice transmission: "This unruly man seems a bit silly, but I didn't expect that he is not that stupid."
Murong Wannian immediately replied through voice transmission: "Do you really think they are as stupid as you think? The three of them followed you into the Demon Abyss, and you really think they are doing it for the tens of millions of spirit stones you gave them!"
"Oh?" Mu Wushuang was obviously a little surprised: "Grandpa, could it be that I was the one being used by them?"
"Hmph, in my opinion, they must have other purposes for entering the Demonic Abyss." Murong Wannian replied: "I think they are just trying to earn your reward. Once they achieve their goal, they will probably leave your team."
“They…” Mu Wushuang was very angry: “Humph, I didn’t expect them to have such a lack of contract spirit!”
"It's the same for each other. We are just using each other." Murong Wannian replied: "You didn't tell them the real purpose of your coming to the Demon Abyss. Aren't you also using these desperate people to work for you?"
Mu Wushuang: “…”
"Have you discussed it?" Seeing that Murong Wannian and Mu Wushuang had been silent for a long time, Ye Fei said impatiently: "If you don't bring my senior sister and my junior brother here, I won't demonstrate it to you."
"What if I bring your senior sister and your junior brother here and you run away?" Mu Wushuang said.
"Haha, you only gave us half of the reward, how could we run away!" Ye Fei said.
Mu Wushuang looked at Murong Wannian again.
Murong Wannian nodded and said to Mu Wushuang through voice transmission: "Let's trust him for once and go get them!"
Mu Wushuang was a little worried: "Grandpa, what if they meet up and run away?"
“Hmph…” Murong Wannian said with some disdain: “This place is the heart of the Demon Abyss. I deliberately asked you to teleport him here so that he wouldn’t dare to run away even if he died!”
Mu Wushuang: "Don't dare to run?"
Murong Wannian: "With their cultivation level, if they leave your army and fight alone in the heart of the Demonic Abyss, they will definitely not survive for more than three days. Otherwise, why do you think they would follow your team into the Demonic Abyss?
Besides, I am here with you. Do you think your grandfather's True Yuan Realm is a fake? It is not that easy for them to escape from my grasp."
Mu Wushuang: "That's true! Then I'll go pick them up!"
After Mu Wushuang finished speaking, he immediately looked at Ye Fei: "Wait! I'll help you pick them up!"
After Mu Wushuang finished speaking, he turned and left.
"Master Ye..." After Mu Wushuang left, Murong Wannian said to Ye Fei with a half-smile, "Do you know why this place is so deserted?"
"Why?" Ye Fei asked.
"This place is already the heart of the Demonic Abyss." Murong Wannian smiled slightly: "Anyone who can come here, without the protection of a True Origin Realm expert or above, even if he is a Soul Origin Realm expert, he will definitely not survive more than three days if he fights alone here."
Murong Wannian was hinting to Ye Fei not to play tricks.
"Is it so dangerous?" Ye Fei pretended to be very scared.
"Of course!" Murong Wannian finally felt relieved when he saw Ye Fei's frightened look.
Humph, it’s good that you’re afraid.
"Shh..."
Just then, Mu Wushuang came over with Feng Qingyao and Ding Dashan.
